The marine primer seals the wood against moisture. 1994 Undercover Chassis 125" altered stack injected big block, soon blown and injected Member of The Torque and Recoil Club

The marine primer seals the wood against moisture. I think this would work well. Just like the stuff used on treated decks. I think it has been quite a while since Steve had his wood cleaned.

The diamond plate will also help keep the tires from sliding around. Doing the whole track where the tires will roll is even better, but it gets expensive. Local sheetmetal shop can sheer lengths & widths as needed.
